Abstract: A system may include a processor configured to automatically obtain magnetic resonance imaging compatibility information relating to compatibility of an active implantable medical device implantable in a patient with an MRI modality from at least two information sources. The processor may also be configured to automatically determine compatibility of the active implantable medical device with the magnetic resonance imaging modality based on the magnetic resonance imaging compatibility information.

Abstract: A therapeutic sleeve is disposable about a therapy delivery element. The sleeve has a first opening, a second opening, and a radially elastic body member disposed between the first and second opening. The body member forms a lumen extending from the first opening to the second opening and is configured to be disposed about the therapy delivery element. The sleeve further includes a therapeutic agent releasable from the body member when implanted in a patient.

Abstract: An adapter for coupling a pair of implantable neurostimulator lead extension plugs to a connector port of a neurostimulator device includes a connector coupled to a first end of an elongate body and a flexible bifurcation member coupled to a second end of the elongate body, wherein the bifurcation member includes a first branch, to which a first housing, having first and second ports, is coupled, and a second branch, to which a second housing, having first and second ports, is coupled. Openings of the first and second ports of each housing provide for side-by-side insertion of first and second connector terminals of one of the lead extension plugs. Contacts within each port provide for electrical coupling with corresponding contacts of the connector terminals of the plug, and are coupled to corresponding contacts of the adapter connector via conductors extending within the elongate body between the corresponding housing and connector.

Abstract: Implantable leads implantable in a patient, such as patient's neck. The lead includes a first lead segment and a second lead segment. The second lead segment extends from the first lead segment at a first junction point and includes first, second, and third legs each defining a longitudinal length in extension from the first junction point to a distal end. A length of the first leg is greater than a length of the second leg, and a length of the second leg is greater than a length of the third leg. With this configuration, each of the legs are adapted to support at least one electrode at the distal end thereof, and are appropriately dimensioned relative to one another for locating the corresponding electrode at a desired target tissue site in the patient's neck. Targeted tissue can include, for example, muscles of the neck.

Abstract: Implantable medical leads that are flexible and extensible in a controllable manner to facilitate subject body movements and that are bundled to create a branched lead to permit lead body ends on one or both ends of the lead to be movable relative to one another so as to be positionable in different locations. Implantable medical leads advantageously include individual lead portions, sub-bundles, and bundles that are able to be selectively positioned and implanted within a subject body and that are useful, in particular, for use in the neck region of a subject body and other regions of any subject's body that may benefit from increased flexibility, extensibility and positionability.

Abstract: Implantable medical leads that are customizable and that are flexible and extensible in a controllable manner to facilitate subject body movements. In particular, implantable medical leads include the ability to be customized by selective and controllable separation of lead bodies from one another, which leads are also able to permit and withstand multiple degree of freedom of movement that are useful for use in the neck region of a subject body and other regions of any subject's body that may benefit from increased flexibility and extensibility.

Abstract: Implantable medical lead assemblies of a plurality of leads that are flexible and extensible in a controllable manner to facilitate subject body movements and that are bundled to create a branched lead assembly to permit lead ends on one or both ends of the lead assembly to be movable relative to one another so as to be positionable in different locations.
